TLDR
The basic concepts of Brownian diffusion and lipid domain formation in model membranes are summarized and the development of ideas and tools in this field are tracked, outlining key results obtained on the dynamic processes at work in membrane structure and assembly.Abstract:
Cell membranes are fascinating supramolecular aggregates that not only form a barrier between compartments but also harbor many chemical reactions essential to the existence and functioning of a cell. Here, it is proposed to review the molecular dynamics and mosaic organization of the plasma membrane, which are thought to have important functional implications. We will first summarize the basic concepts of Brownian diffusion and lipid domain formation in model membranes and then track the development of ideas and tools in this field, outlining key results obtained on the dynamic processes at work in membrane structure and assembly. We will focus in particular on findings made using fluorescent labeling and imaging procedures to record these dynamic processes. We will also discuss a few examples showing the impact of lateral diffusion on cell signal transduction, and outline some future methodological challenges which must be met before we can answer some of the questions arising in this field of research.read more

TL;DR: GTPase coordination in mouse embryonic fibroblasts is examined both through simultaneous visualization of two GTPase biosensors and using a ‘computational multiplexing’ approach capable of defining the relationships between multiple protein activities visualized in separate experiments, finding that RhoA is activated at the cell edge synchronous with edge advancement, whereas Cdc42 and Rac1 are activated 2 μm behind the edge with a delay of 40 s.

TL;DR: A free‐like diffusion was observed when both the lipid‐dependent and cytoskeleton‐based organizations were disrupted, which suggests that these are two main compartmentalizing forces at work in the plasma membrane.

Organization and Ca2+ Regulation of Adenylyl Cyclases in cAMP Microdomains
TL;DR: The regulation of many of the ACs by the ubiquitous second messenger Ca(2+) provides an overarching mechanism for integrating the activities of these two major signaling systems, and cAMP will exhibit distinct kinetics in discrete cellular domains.

TL;DR: In this article, trajectories of individual molecules diffusing in the cytoplasmic leaflet of the plasma membrane were recorded, and the diffusion of individual membrane-anchored enhanced yellow fluorescent protein molecules was studied in live cells on timescales from 5 to 200 ms.

TL;DR: Lateral diffusion of GFP-tagged H2Ld molecules in the ER membrane reports on their interaction with the TAP complex during synthesis and peptide loading, suggesting that the T AP complex is very large, perhaps containing hundreds of proteins.

TL;DR: Two-photon fluorescence microscopy on giant unilamellar vesicles and tapping-mode atomic force microscopy are applied to follow the insertion of a fluorescently labeled and completely lipidated N-Ras protein into heterogeneous lipid bilayer systems, providing direct evidence that partitioning of N- Ras occurs preferentially into liquid-disordered lipid domains.

Temporally resolved interactions between antigen-stimulated IgE receptors and Lyn kinase on living cells
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) to investigate the mechanism of signaling-dependent protein-protein interactions in intact, living cells and reveal real-time interactions between Lyn and cross-linked FcepsilonRI implicated in downstream signaling events.
